Sweet Jesus! Rebellion never sounded so good, that’s what Green Day taught me with their song “American Idiot”. Witnessing America drown in a multitrillion dollar debt and foolish societal injustices will make even the sanest person go nuts. Besides being the revolution song of the 00’s, American Idiot can’t be a more accurate representation of society today. The underlying message of this song is that we as American’s are being brainwashed by false media: what is normal, how to compose ourselves

Woodstock 1969 During the ‘60s, it was the time of drugs, love, hippies, and the Vietnam War. People were being sent to war while hippies just wanted peace. Woodstock was thought up and provided peace just for them. Before Woodstock happened in the ‘60s, there were many hippies everywhere. Hippies were involved in music, drugs, peace, and love. During this time, there were four young men, the oldest being 27, that had ideas to build a recording studio so they made up this concert to raise money

Europe was not the only part of the world that experienced change in music. The United States also began a change in music that drastically improved the way we listen to, compose, and disperse music. Before the 1960s, there was an increase in different types of music that displayed characteristics much different from the nineteenth century and beyond. People began to play with tone, timing, rhythm and much more. The beginning of popular American music dated around the 1850s. The most influential

“'You can't fu*king kick me out of your life like that. I'm your son. Look what you've done to me! Look at me!' I scream. “I've got nowhere to sleep, nothing to eat. I got nearly beaten to death...” p.244/245 I think that this is very depressing yet this was a very brave thing for Dylan to do. This was the first time he said that to his mother in front of Dan. Since Dylan usually respects his mother, this time he just exploded. I think this is very relatable in every teenagers life. It's like when

Charles Dickens uses figurative language to paint the picture of the character Scrooge. He uses figurative language to show how Scrooge is a mean, cold-hearted, and greedy. The figurative language includes hyperbole, simile, metaphor, even all the other types of figurative language. Scrooge in these pages, is a mean and cold-hearted man but maybe in the next chapter he will get nicer through the progress of the book. Scrooge is a mean man because we can see this through the escalation of the story

The band Blue Oyster Cult behind the song (Don't Fear) The Reaper arose in 1967 in Long Island, NY. The original four band members include Andy Winters (bass) Donald Roeser (Guitar) Allen Lanier (Keyboard) and Albert Bouchard (Drums) The band first signed with Elektra Records and recorded two unreleased albums. Fired by Elektra, the band finally decided on and signed with Columbia Records in 1971. They released their debut album in January of 1972 which got medium reviews. In 1974 they released Sweet

The impact of the Beatles has often been noted but cannot be overstated. The Fab Four from Liverpool, England, startled the ears and energized the lives of virtually all who heard them. Their arrival triggered the musical revolution of the Sixties, introducing a modern sound and viewpoint that parted ways with the world of the previous decade. The Beatles were apart of the British invasion and made a huge impact across the world with their music and fashion trends, before, during, and after the

There were many songs that were written and produced during the 1960s and 1970s about the war in Vietnam. These were both pro war and anti war. Different artists wrote these for many different reasons, and the songs were inspired by varying things. They were often written to influence the American public and to get a point across. Overall these songs added significance to the war in Vietnam. One song written about the war was “Give Peace a Chance” by John Lennons. The first time he performed this

protesting, music is the most appealing one. The rhythm of the song can manipulate the feeling of the listener easily, letting people emotionally easier to accept the point that being made in the song. The first man who realized this was the folk singer Bob Dylan, who later became one of the symbols of the US Civil Rights movement. After Dylan’s first protest song ‘The Death of Emmett Till’ was introduced to the public in 1962, which talks about a young black man who was killed by members of the Ku Klux

most influential artist or band in the 1960’s, I came to a conclusion that the ‘The Beatles’ has to be the most influential band of the 1960’s, even the most influential band of all time! There were many influential artist and bands in the 1960’s like Bob Dylan, the great and famous band The Rolling Stones, the clever James Brown, and the amazing rock guitarist Jimo Hendrix, but the most influential band in the 1960’s
